What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Recent data indicate a resurgence of stimulant use and harms in the United States; thus, there is a need to identify risk factors to inform development of effective prevention strategies. Prior research suggests adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are common among individuals using stimulants and may be an important target for prevention. National Epidemiological Survey on Alcohol and Related Conditions was used to estimate prevalence of ACEs among U.S. adults using amphetamine-type stimulants (ATS), cocaine, or both. Multivariable logistic regression examined associations between ACEs and stimulant use and use disorders. Among adults reporting lifetime ATS use, 22.1% had ≥4 ACEs, 24.9% had 2-3 ACEs, 22.4% had 1 ACE, 30.6% reported no ACEs. Among adults with lifetime ATS use disorder, 29.3% reported ≥4 ACEs, 28.7% reported 2-3 ACEs, 21.6% reported 1 ACE, and 20.4% reported no ACEs. Multivariable logistic regression found a significant relationship between number of ACEs and stimulant use and use disorders. In conclusion, we found a strong relationship between increasing ACE exposures and stimulant use and use disorders. Advancing comprehensive strategies to prevent ACEs and treating underlying trauma among those using stimulants holds great promise to reduce stimulant use and its health and social consequences in the United States.
